Tell Gov Inslee: Be a leader against Kinder Morgan!

On April 18, Kinder Morgan announced that it will suspend all non-essential activities and related spending on its dirty pipeline and tanker project. They will make a decision on if they will go forward by May 31. This is HUGE. But, our work is not over. We only have a few weeks to keep up the heat and dish Kinder Morgan the knockout blow they deserve.

​Now is the time for elected leaders in the Salish Sea to continue to resist Kinder Morgan’s dangerous pipeline and tanker project. British Columbian Premier Horgan is taking the heat from Trudeau and the Canadian federal government as he continues to vow to stop Kinder Morgan. And he can hold an even harder line with cross-border support from Washington.

We need Governor Insee to step up his opposition to the project. Washingtonians would be directly impacted by this project, as all oil tanker traffic from the facility must travel through our waters.

Let’s ask Inslee to lead with Horgan, and voice his opposition loud and clear. Send the Governor your letter today!

Thank you for your opposition to Kinder Morgan’s proposed pipeline, and for standing up for indigenous rights, our lands and waters, our communities, and our economy.
Kinder Morgan will make a decision by May 31st on whether to continue with its dangerous pipeline project. We need you to stand with B.C. Premier John Horgan to send a clear message to the world: The Pacific Northwest is united against dirty tar sands oil, and Kinder Morgan’s pipeline and tankers have no place here.
This pipeline and tanker project is a direct affront to U.S. Tribal Treaties and First Nations’ sovereignty. Washingtonians are standing with Tribes and First Nations, and we will be making it clear throughout the month of May that we back up B.C. in opposing Kinder Morgan. We are hopeful that you will do everything in your power to honor the treaties.
Washington already accepts Canadian tar sands oil from the Puget Sound Pipeline, the Southern spur of the existing Trans Mountain Pipeline. Kinder Morgan has bragged publicly about their ability to expand the Puget Sound Pipeline. We urge you to affirm publicly that our state will not accept such an expansion under your watch.
As our “Green Governor,” we are hopeful you won’t let this happen. Together, we can stop any further tanker traffic in the Salish Sea and make your plans to recover our orca a reality. Take leadership -- and we will back you 100 percent!
Please fight for all Washingtonians and our shared waters, salmon, orcas, and climate. As Tsleil-Waututh elder Ta’ah, Amy George says, Warrior Up, Governor Insee!
